So, I started writing press releases and one of my clients wanted me to send the press release out to a list of free press release sites. I had been saving lists of free press release sites, so I started going down the list and figured it would take no time at all. Hah! I say.
To make a short story long... about a quarter of the sites on these lists had gone out of business. Several turned out NOT to be free - and I found this out after going through the time consuming and tedious process of applying to be a member, writing about my company, filling in the press release information... and several of them apparently got swallowed by my spam filter on my email account so I applied to submit a press release and never got an email with a confirmation link...and one of them I filled out the form several times and finally got accepted, submitted the press release, and it told me that there were MySQL issues and I couldn't submit it...and one of them I filled out the application form and it turns out I can only submit stuff for myself, not for clients, which does me no good... So, to save you all of this misery, here is my list of free press release sites which as of yesterday were still up and running, and to which I successfully submitted press releases: (And if you have any that are NOT on this list, which you use, please let me know!) Press Release Distribution & Free Press Release Submit @ 1888 PressRelease.com Free Press Release Distribution Center - I-Newswire.com Express Press Release Distribution (Free) PressRelease.com http://openpr.com/ http://www.clickpress.com http://www.freepressindex.com http://www.pr.com http://www.ecommwire.com/ http://www.free-press-release-center.info http://www.prcompass.com/ http://www.prurgent.com http://www.prlog.org http://www.pressmethod.com http://www.pressexposure.com http://www.pressreleasespider.com http://www.techprspider.com http://www.sanepr.com http://www.pagerelease.com http://www.pressreleasepoint.com http://www.bignewsbiz.com http://newswiretoday.com |

Hi Dana
Thanks for the reference... Also, can you give pointers on a sample press release even just a single paragraph would help. Thanks again, Omar/RapidScc |

Dana,
I know there was another thread chock full of press release sites, and I was among several who was appreciative of the information. But to know those that are current and fairly easy and successful to submit to - that's more valuable than just a list alone. So, thank you VERY much for putting forth this effort for us all to benefit from. You've been quite the busy beaver lately, between this, your work, your blog full of Twitter materials ... |

Hey Omar, first of all one of the best things that you can do is go to the press release sites and read some press releases to get a feel for how to phrase things.
A press release has to: Be written in the third person; even if I was writing about myself I would say "Dana Willhoit, CEO of Wordslinger, Inc., announces the launch of..." Have a headline; a short summary which sums up the story in 2 or 3 sentences; the body of the story, which needs to be at least 250 words; and an "about the company" paragraph. has to include contact information; many of the sites require a physical address and phone number. Has to be written about something newsworthy. This doesn't mean it has to be so good it would make the front page, but you can't just write a press release about your business; you have to find an angle. If you have just launched a business or are offering a new service, that's an angle. If not - let's say you offer SEO services. You could send a press release saying that in today's economy, businesses need to make sure they get a return on every penny they spend on promotion, so you, Joe Smith of Joe Smith SEO Services Inc., are releasing a free mini-course on how businesses can use SEO to promote themselves and save money at the same time. |

Thank you, Barbara, that's it exactly. I saw those same lists and thought it would be super easy, but I probably eliminated half the sites on those lists for one reason or another - they no longer exist, they are only free if by "free" you mean "costs $99", they won't talk to my email account... By the way, when applying to these sites, using a Yahoo or other free account can really slow things down. If you have a paid email account you are better off using that. | |

I have often wondered if submitting to a bunch of PR sites is better than submitting to one or two big ones. Just a guess, but I would think that some of the smaller sites have no outlets picking up the stories. They just get posted on the PR site and that is all. Not bad I guess for SEO, but not that great for distribution.

Realistically speaking, a lot of the benefit from submitting to so many sites is going to be backlinks. The press is isn't going to pick up most of these press releases.
If you really want the press to pick up your press release, that takes some more effort and unless you have an absolutely astounding story to tell, it takes contacting the newspapers and magazines and Tv stations to pitch yoru story. Or hiring someone to do that for you. And you generally need to come up with some kind of publicity stunt that is newsworthy, Now, when I say stunt - I don't mean Evil Knievel. I mean, if you are a dermatologist, arrange to do a free skin cancer screening for seniors at the local senior center. That'll get at least a small mention in the paper, and then they will know your name. If you're a store owner, do holiday giveaways. Or solicit people to drop off donations at your store for a battered women's shelter or homeless shelter or whatever, and the people leave their business card, and you do a drawing and give away a free tank of gasoline to whoever wins. Or if you train dogs, do a fundraiser for the local animal shelter - offer to give a 6 week dog training course and all proceeds will go to the animal shelter. |

Wow, Eric, I think that article was one of the best arguments that I have seen FOR using press release submission!
My main question is whether it's worth paying the press release sites for better placement, the inclusion of more links, wider distribution, etc. At some point I'll do a test on that. |

I could not agree more with the OP... I did the same thing with a list and after hours and hours of wasted time I got 3 press releases posted (others either rejected or was not free).
One I paid $20 for front page listing on a popular press release site. I got a total of 20 visits and that is all for all that work.. Huge waste of time. Next time I will be paying for a real release. James |

Well, James, all those on the list I just posted are free. If you get it down to a rhythm - once you have signed up for all those sites and written your press release - I do think it's worth it to send it in to all of them. But it is terribly tedious getting it set up in the first place.
That's disappointing to hear that the $20 fee only got you 20 visits though. It might depend on a lot of things, the way the press release is written, the subject of the press release, the timing... |

Dana,
Great post. I noticed a trend of what types of releases that I do that get traffic and the ones that don't. No its not the type of product or service that makes a difference. The press releases that get the most attention are ones that invite the reader to take an action. The word FREE kills action. Its a hype word. Courtesy or Complementary out pulls FREE Writing in third person active tense is a must have skill for press releases. Mr Smith is going to have free one day auto body hot line this Thursday.... Mr Smiths Complementary one day auto body hot line is this Thursday.... Mark |

Interesting side note: I went on Google and looked up the name of the company that I am promoting. Four or five of my press releases are on the front page of Google. Their actual web site is nowhere to be found, at least on the first few pages of Google.
At least press releases, which have sort of the ring of authority to the general public, ARE linking to their site, but their site should be on the front page of Google for their own name. Someone didn't SEO very well when designing their website. |

I just heard from my client - they got picked up by several news services! Holy frickin cow. I didn't expect that.
Start writing and submitting those press releases, peeps! I should mention that EcommWire Is Your Free Press Release Distribution Center turned down my press release and steered me to one of their other sites, because they only write about e commerce. I thought my client's press release was close enough, but apparently not. Oh by the way - for all those people who talk about duplicate content - this story took up about six or seven positions on the front page of Google. Same story. Really, press releases are powerful stuff. |

Hey Justin, you're not following me on Twitter. Not that feeling I'm hurt and rejected or anything. >
![]() I am still waiting to hear back from clients on what they find the best day - there is actually an argument that weekends are better because there are less submissions from other people which means you sit on the front page of the press release site for longer - and, as a reporter, I can tell you that on the weekend you have a better chance of a newspaper actually grabbing the press release and using it in their paper. That's because weekends are traditionally slow and there is less news, so we would turn to press releases and wire copy. (AP wire copy>) |

Aw Dana now you just cheer up right now ya hear? Cause I've been following you for a long time
![]() Let's see...you put up a tweet ago about something about your daughter? See! Getting back to press release submission, from personal experience my press release ended up in a Sunday paper where I landed nearly a full page color story which ended up filling up my practice for nearly a full year ![]() That was the only "advertising" I did for that whole time. As far as online press releases I would think that the rate by which your press release is sticky is based partially on PR. If a site has a high PR then turnover rate should be high - kind of like the Wso section. But if your release is submitted to a low PR site you should stay on the front page longer like the warrior classifieds, but it will get less attention. So it seems that for short term gains a site with a low PR is best, but for long term traffic a higher visibility site like prweb.com might cook your goose better. Quote:

Another thing I want to find out is whether it's worth it to pay for the extra visibility on the press release sites - so far clients want free, so free is what they get.

Here is a sample press release for those who need it (found via google search)
****************************************** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Joseph A. Stirt, M.D. AnesthesiologyExpert.com 2809 Magnolia Drive Charlottesville, VA 22901 Phone: 804-242-4990 Anesthesiology Expert Witness Testimony Anesthesiologist Malpractice info@anesthesiologyexpert.com Anesthesiologist M.D. Offers Expert Defense/Plaintiff Case Analysis of Potential Medical Malpractice Charlottesville, VA -- April 12, 2001 -- Before you invest time and money defending or proceeding with an anesthesia-related medical malpractice case, check with expert board-certified anesthesiologist Joseph A. Stirt, M.D. Whether you are a defense or plaintiff attorney, Dr. Stirt can not only tell you if you have a case but also how best to structure it, based on a detailed medical review. No newcomer to cases involving possible anesthesia-related malpractice, Dr. Stirt has 15 years of experience. Presented orally or as a written report, his in-depth analysis can save you hours of preparation and thousands of dollars. He is prepared to step in at the last minute when another expert suddenly withdraws from a case. Availability and rapid response make his service unique. According to Dr. Stirt, "The question I get most often is, 'Is it malpractice?' My job is to sort out the bad outcomes due to occurrences that fall within the standard of care from those that do not. The question of whether a case involves negligence is one that looms over every potential malpractice action. If answered correctly, it can save both defendants and plaintiffs from mental anguish and ill-advised pursuit of a defense or lawsuit." Dr. Stirt serves on the faculty of a major U.S. medical school affiliated with a top-rated tertiary care medical center. He sits on state medical boards as an expert reviewer and expert witness in anesthesiology. He has written books, book chapters, and numerous scientific papers, as well as articles in the medical-legal literature, received honors and awards in medical teaching and scholarship, and has 18 years of academic anesthesia experience ranging from Post Anesthesia Care Unit Director and Outpatient Surgical Unit Director to his current position as Clinical Associate Professor of Anesthesiology. Dr. Stirt is a diplomat of the American Board of Anesthesiology and the National Board of Medical Examiners. He has been an invited reviewer and lecturer in anesthesiology throughout the U.S. and Europe and has appeared on CNBC. Accessibility is a unique and important aspect of Dr. Stirt's services. His expertise in anesthesiology is available at any time. He does not work on a contingency fee basis. Your initial telephone consultation is free.

Stirt, M.D. AnesthesiologyExpert.com 2809 Magnolia Drive Charlottesville, VA 22901 Phone: 804-242-4990 Anesthesiology Expert Witness Testimony Anesthesiologist Malpractice info@anesthesiologyexpert.com Anesthesiologist M.D. Offers Expert Defense/Plaintiff Case Analysis of Potential Medical Malpractice Charlottesville, VA -- April 12, 2001 -- Before you invest time and money defending or proceeding with an anesthesia-related medical malpractice case, check with expert board-certified anesthesiologist Joseph A. Stirt, M.D. Whether you are a defense or plaintiff attorney, Dr. Stirt can not only tell you if you have a case but also how best to structure it, based on a detailed medical review. No newcomer to cases involving possible anesthesia-related malpractice, Dr. Stirt has 15 years of experience. Presented orally or as a written report, his in-depth analysis can save you hours of preparation and thousands of dollars. He is prepared to step in at the last minute when another expert suddenly withdraws from a case. Availability and rapid response make his service unique. According to Dr. Stirt, "The question I get most often is, 'Is it malpractice?' My job is to sort out the bad outcomes due to occurrences that fall within the standard of care from those that do not. The question of whether a case involves negligence is one that looms over every potential malpractice action. If answered correctly, it can save both defendants and plaintiffs from mental anguish and ill-advised pursuit of a defense or lawsuit." Dr. Stirt serves on the faculty of a major U.S. medical school affiliated with a top-rated tertiary care medical center. He sits on state medical boards as an expert reviewer and expert witness in anesthesiology. He has written books, book chapters, and numerous scientific papers, as well as articles in the medical-legal literature, received honors and awards in medical teaching and scholarship, and has 18 years of academic anesthesia experience ranging from Post Anesthesia Care Unit Director and Outpatient Surgical Unit Director to his current position as Clinical Associate Professor of Anesthesiology. Dr. Stirt is a diplomat of the American Board of Anesthesiology and the National Board of Medical Examiners. He has been an invited reviewer and lecturer in anesthesiology throughout the U.S. and Europe and has appeared on CNBC. Accessibility is a unique and important aspect of Dr. Stirt's services. His expertise in anesthesiology is available at any time. He does not work on a contingency fee basis. Your initial telephone consultation is free.

Dana,
Thanks for this great list of FREE Press Release sites. I have found several on there that I was NOT aware of, so I will be using your list. You are right in that it will create backlinks for us. Also, that was a great little outline you gave on how to form one's Press Release. I know several people I have helped have a problem in doing this and you have made it simple to understand. I have just re-tweeted your link to this thread on Twitter, so that more of my followers will benefit from your great information! Again, Thank You!!! To your health, Edward Moore |

Awesome list, Dana.
![]() Just wanted to mention one thing... I did a huuuge test a while ago where I tested publlishing press releases to a zillion different free sites. The ONLY free press release site to send me over 2 visitors, after all the tests, was pressbox - free press release distribution and news - press store - copywriting services. I found the $80 option at PRWeb to be a zillion times better than anything else. From the same press release, I got over 1,000 visitors using them. |

Time is money so we also use PRWeb. We prefer the $200 (SEO Visibility) option.
PRWeb recommends Tue or Wed as the best days to issue your PR. Here are some stats on our last PR for a client. This is a very small niche and the clients base is not consumers but purchasing agents and small biz owners, smaller market than most. Read from a PRWeb Site 573 Details of Headline Impressions Headline Displayed thru RSS, XML or other syndication 18749 Headline Displayed on a PRWeb Site 13686 Headline Requested by Pheedo Network 2294 Headline Requested by Topix Network 37 Total 34766 Using AdWords keywords for this industry are valued at about $1.50 per click so for $200 we consider this very good value, especially considering the backlinks. |
